Current #Jolla status:

"WLAN adapter not available"

No amount of resetting of the networking subsystem or turning the phone completely off gets around it. I'm guessing this will be where being able to access the Linux system underneath will turn out to be very valuable.

(There are also other nearby issues - like being unable to forget the VPN configuration and that there's something strange where the mobile network only gets IPv6 access and around 50% of all sites work)

Otoh, this is why I bought it. To help make a non-US mobile phone OS actually usable.

I got all the way up to pkgsrc-wip setup with the NetBSD install and that's where my notes ended so that's where I paused for the night. I'll do that today and take notes.

one thing I found out: you can't have the 'log' and the 'discard' options both enabled on a FFS filesystem, which is unfortunate from a write amplification standpoint. good thing I got an industrial SD card, now I wish it was twice the size though to give that issue a bit more of a buffer.

@kibcol1049 This is not so good, and a complete nonsense debate from the beginning to the end. Parents already have all the technical and legal tools to block social media for their children. Schools can forbid smart phones in class and on school premises.

Yet... the EU continues. The reason is obvious. They want to build out the surveillance state, and be able to block social media posts that go against the socialist narrative of the EU.

They also want to be able to deplatform political

@kibcol1049 opponents. With the online ID requirements, and the surveillance apparatus that has been built, we are now no better than china.

I worked at a library for a bit and we had one of those book printing robots. One of the display books was The Anarchist Cookbook and it warmed my heart for sure.

Jordanian Patriot units engage Iranian combined strike

Footage shows air defense crews of the Jordanian Armed Forces repelling an attack on Al-Muwaffaq al-Salti Air Base. Reports indicate Iran again targeted this base. Jordanian forces expended their missile stockpile without restraint during the interception.

@kibcol1049 So it seems like it is only you and me again. Regardless of if you agree with me or not, I find you a "great democratic man" for at least reading them. It seems to me that my "opponents" are too quick with the block button. This is not how democracy and an enlightened discussion of political ideas should be run. =/

Are we too thin skinned? Can we no longer read or be exposed to a contrary opinion without reaching for the block button?
